MDZip Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 Finally showed up. And it was $35 not $55. I think they did a pretty good job on it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWAkron Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 Also, there is some decent Zips gear with the "A" on sale at Dick's Sporting Goods. 50% off. It's the "colliseum" brand and not the "nike" merchandise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's iconic. BG uses a logo that incorporates their Falcon. OU incorporates their Bobcat. Do the Akron Rubber Ducks use an "A"? The Zips use Arby's, and a Crayola. But Fordham was mesmerized by it, so who am I to say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the best. Changing that to a Z made no sense. But then again it's also doesn't make sense that Groce hasn't found a viable back up big.

The RubberDucks actually do have an A logo believe it or not, and I bet you can guess the popularity of their 3 main logos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just was scrolling across on ESPN+ to see if the Zips were available tomorrow and ran across Army and App State that at a quick glance could have been Akron. Just doesn't stand out. But the tire tread A? Would the Rubberducks sell? 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the tire tread A? Would the Rubberducks sell? 😉 The Tread A is the least popular logo of the RubberDucks by a long shot. Kinda my point was when you have something as unique as the RubberDucks you gotta use the logo that is a rubberduck not a letter. Akron is the Zips, and we have a kangaroo mascot, both super unique things! Personally my favorite logo is the Z, I am not a huge fan of the A roo logo mostly because I think the kangaroo face is poorly done as I think it is hard to distinguish where the eyes are and what the nose is doing. I do like the idea of having a kangaroo logo. But if UA really wanted to make it a community thing, maybe we should try and use some of those community aspects in the logo instead of just a letter that can be made by using graph paper and a straight edge.

UA really needs a merch upgrade, splattering the generic A on everything isn't the answer. The Ducks team shop has so many sweet items and designs, maybe UA could take some notes. Also, the new lake county captains logo is how a new logo should be, its just beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted December 3 Report Share Posted December 3 I love the new A. But we should also have items w/ the kick @ss Z As well as classic old Zippy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
